      Est: €1,000 - €1,200

      CHARLES LEVY SASPORTAS (Montmorency, 1877- Paris, 1968). Untitled, 1918. Oil on canvas. It has restorations and a small tear in the canvas on the left edge. Size: 122 x 92 cm; 129 x 98 cm (frame). In this canvas the painter offers us an expressive female portrait, starring a woman with a black dress, in which dominates a wide neckline, adorned with a white brocade. The woman also wears a pearl necklace and matching earrings, and is adorned with a rose that stands out for its brilliant colour against the black. In the 18th century, European portraiture was varied and wide-ranging, with numerous influences and largely determined by the tastes of both the clientele and the painter himself. However, this century saw the birth of a new concept of portraiture, which evolved throughout the century and unified all the national schools: the desire to capture the personality of the human being and his character, beyond his external reality and social rank, in his effigy. The 18th century reacted against the rigid etiquette of the previous century with a more human and individual conception of life, and this was reflected in all areas, from furniture, which became smaller and more comfortable, replacing the large gilded and carved pieces of furniture, to the portrait itself, which, as we see here, came to dispense with all symbolic or scenographic elements in order to depict the individual rather than the personage. Charles Levy Sasportas was an outstanding portrait painter, famous for painting high society figures in New England and France or New York, where he had a studio in Central Park, and in 1933 Villa Comtadine published a brochure entitled: "CHARLES L. SASPORTAS DE PARIS, FRANCE Portrait Painter", thus gaining great recognition from the prevailing social class. Sasportas was a member of the Societe des Artistes Francais. His portraits can be found in important private and public collections, including the Smithsonian Institution's National Portrait Gallery of the United States, which holds a 1949 painting of General Jonathan Wainwright by Sasportas, as well as portraits of William Henry Hoover and Emily Lowe. The National Society of Colonial Dames of America in Illinois owns a 1915 portrait of Katherine Carpenter Birmingham.
